Plant description
A seasonal treat that will fill a room with perfume, paperwhites (Narcissus 'Paperwhite Ziva') are fast and easy to grow and make a great gift. In this arrangement we have planted 5 large bulbs in each in a terracotta pot before dressing it with a layer of moss.
They will look fantastic on the table and after they have flowered, they can be planted outside in the garden where they will come back year after year.
Make sure your gift arrives looking really fabulous by adding giftwrap in the checkout.
Pot measures: W16cm x H21cm.

How to care for Perfumed paperwhites in terracotta pot:
Keep in a warm but well-lit spot, watering when the top few inches of compost feels dry. After flowering, consider relocating the plants 'in the green' to an outdoor border or pot to flower again the following year.
Feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead the spent flowers or seedheads, but do not be tempted to cut back or tidy the foliage after flowering as this will interfere with the bulbs’ ability to store energy for the following year's flowers. If planted outside, the colder temperatures will return the bulb to dormancy until natural flowering early in the new year.

Which house plant where?
Which house plants you choose should depend on the environment you intend to keep them in, the space available, how much time you can spend preening them as well as your personal preference. For me, foliage house plants are the ticket, because they provid
